“Color, color, color! Converse and Lucky Brand have a great showing of this; even Tumi and John Varvatos get in on this trend. It’s such a fun moment for color. It allows for a classic design with a different spin.”– Nicolas Roseillier, REM Eyewear

“Color
has been another huge trend. Customers recognize that eyewear is the
perfect accessory to add a pop of color to their look. We’ve noticed
more and more customers are taking a risk and going for a look different
than classic black, tortoise or traditional metal colors. Brightly
colored flat metals, multi-layered acetates—nothing is off limits.”
– Lori Bowman,Pearle Vision“Customers
want color, new colors, innovative combinations of color. We continue
to see innovation and new technology in terms of printing on acetate and
metals. After a great deal of research and development the print houses
are finding ways to create 3D print effect for patterns through
complex, custom laminations of the acetate. For metals, there are new
print transfer techniques that make the prints look more integrated to
create more balance.”
